Recipe Ingredients:
Start by filling a stock pot ¾ full of water and bring it to a boil. Once it’s boiling, add 1 tsp. of salt and the spaghetti. Cook according to package directions. Drain then toss with 1 Tbsp. of Olive oil, and set aside.
In a shallow bowl, mix-together ½ cup flour, 2 Tsp. lemon pepper, salt, and onion powder. Slice the chicken breast in half lengthwise. Dredge both sides of each piece of chicken in the flour mixture and set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet on medium heat, add 4 Tbsp. Olive oil. Then place the chicken in the skillet and sprinkle each piece with Paprika. Cook until both sides are golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set them aside.
In a measuring cup, mix hot water with Chicken flavored Better than Bouillon and set aside.
In the skillet, turn the temperature down to medium-low and add 2 Tbsp. Olive oil and 4 Tbsp. butter into the chicken drippings. Once the butter is melted, whisk in 4 Tbsp. of flour to make a roux. Continue whisking and cook the flour for about 1 to 2 minutes then add in minced garlic. Let the garlic cook for about 1 minute.
Add the Chicken broth mixture, half and half, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until combined and it starts to thicken.
Add the chicken back into the skillet, sprinkle each piece with the remaining lemon pepper and about 2 Tbsp. parmesan cheese. Cover and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve over a bed of cooked spaghetti. Garnish with parmesan cheese, parsley and fresh lemon slices and enjoy!
